SWANSEA Defender Kyle Naughton has absolved Ireland man David Meyler from any blame over an injury which appears to have ended Naughton's season.

"I've damaged the ligaments in my other ankle before, so I knew straight away that it was serious,'' Naughton said of his clash with Meyler last week as he is unlikely to feature again this season.

"In fairness to Meyler, he texted me to apologise and said he didn't mean to do it. He didn't have to text me, so it was good of him. I know it wasn't intentional, so there are no hard feelings. It's just one of those things. I just have to get on with my rehab now. I'm a positive person and my aim is to try and join the group again before the end of the season."
